ABSTRACT

SO here I am, 70 years old, shell-shocked and unbelieving and still gazing at the world through the eyes of a 29-year-old 'boy'. Until I realise that the humpy, grey-haired figure reflected in the shop window is me. And so, having achieved â€” today â€” the biblical target of three score and ten, as the great skier Franz Klammer once said: 'It's all downhill from here.' It's galling, an outrage, to have to acknowledge that the number of days that lie ahead of me is less than what's behind meâ€¦ still so much to do, but running out of time.

The article presents a questionnaire. One of the question is on what will Britney Spears be doing in 10 years, another is to achieve world peace. Everybody will tune in to see what the bimbos will come up with for what they hope to accomplish when they win.
